This year, the country has already lost, in two months, 9.7 million meticais because of illegal informal trade,\u201d Muendane declared.<\/p>\n<p>The AT president blamed the expansion of the informal economy for the low quality of some food products, such as alcoholic beverages (imported illegally), fuel (smuggled and adulterated), plastic products (some of which are counterfeit) and products with chemical adulterations whose consequences for public health are incalculable. Other sectors impacted include clothing, spare parts, miscellaneous equipment, household appliances, the market for stolen vehicles, cosmetics and others.<\/p>\n<p>The company Cervejas de Mo\u00e7ambique (CDM) was the first to join and test the portal, and is already talking about its advantages.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne of the advantages we have experienced is how easy this tool makes fulfilling our tax obligations. This is because you can access the portal from the comfort of your office or home,\u201d CDM representative Hugo Gomes observed.<\/p>\n<p>Also breathing a sigh of relief is president of the Mukhero Association, Sudekar Novela. Many traders missed contribution deadlines due to lack of time, he said, but now, \u201cany taxpayer who is aware of their duty to contribute to tax revenue will be able to do so easily, without having to abandon their activity\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Interested parties were speaking this Tuesday during celebrations of National Taxpayer\u2019s Day, observed under the motto, \u201cTax Administration and the Taxpayer in the Modernisation of the Tax Management and Collection System\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>On the same occasion, taxpayers who stood out the most in the 2021 financial year were recognised.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/mozambique\">Mozambique<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mozambique.
